Joe Biden urges Trump to raise Chechnya LGBT violence with Russia

Joe Biden urges Trump to raise Chechnya LGBT violence with Russia
- Biden, who now oversees a foreign policy centre at the University of
Pennsylvania and domestic policy centre at the University of Delaware,
told CNN on Friday “disgusted and appalled” by reports that “authorities
in the Russian republic of Chechnya have rounded up, tortured, and even
murdered individuals who are believed to be gay.”
“I hope that the current administration lives up to the promises it
has made to advance human rights for everyone by raising this issue
directly with Russia’s leaders,” Biden said.
